I see. Seems like Payne plays it all, so I can't really tell what position Jabari thinks he is. Surely Duke has somebody on their roster that will be around next year that plays the same "position" too, no? My guess is that it was as close down to the wire as PKM and others said it was and he might have given MSU the impression he was leaning that way and then he came up with a nice way to let MSU down once he settled on Duke. Either that or he's the nicest person in the world.

He did choose MSU .. even told coach K. Changed his mind, as people do. I do think this was a 'nice' way of changing his mind.

Yeah it's true, when I was trying to choose where to go, it came down to Michigan State and Duke for me as well. In the end I decided to choose a career in Geology so I had tell BOTH Coach K and Izzo that I wasn't coming. It was tough.
